  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Let's stick with Antarctica. Because if it's not a ring of ice encircling the Earth, then the flat Earth theory is fiction.

Okay - You stick with your none existent Antarctica & i'll stick with mine which is very real.

Can any globe earthers explain how the Parker Solar probe works? How a signal was received from it, with pictures of the sun.
I'm quite sure you could easily find your answer with a brief search on the internet, but you still haven't explained how the flights between Sydney and Santiago and between Sydney and Los Angeles can work on your flat earth. You said yourself that the flight times are similar, so how can that work when they are such vastly different distances on what you claim is the shape of the earth?
On a globe it makes perfect sense.

On the flat earth?

How did these explorers or anyone for that matter, get too Antarctica in the first place, was it by plane or ship ?
Why don't you "google" it?

Maria Leijerstam got to Antarctica by ship and aircraft, using the same logistics system most modern Antarctic expeditions rely on. In simple terms:
  1. Commercial flight to South America
    She first flew from the UK to Chile (usually Punta Arenas), which is the main international gateway to Antarctica.
  2. Chartered flight to Antarctica ✈️
    From Chile, she boarded a specialized Antarctic flightoperated by a polar logistics company.
    • The aircraft landed on a blue-ice runway in Antarctica (Union Glacier Camp area).
  3. Internal Antarctic transport
    Once on the continent, she and her equipment were flown by ski-equipped aircraft to her starting point at Hercules Inlet.
  4. Start of the expedition ‍♀️❄️
    From Hercules Inlet, she began her human-powered journey, cycling and hauling her sled all the way to the South Pole.
This combination—commercial flights → chartered polar flight → ski plane—is standard for explorers today, since Antarctica has no ports or public airports.

Well how would she know where she landed ?

Hey Apple Sky, I know you had issues booking flights from Sydney to Santiago, but how about Auckland in New Zealand to Santiago?

Prove that it's very real. Without posting someone's video. Very real is very easy to prove.

Lots of ways. Flight and ship logs. GPS. Travle time. A compass. The 750 miles of Arctic terrain she crossed.

I doubt she'd even have a clue where she landed.

What matters is there's numerous ways of tracking her documented journey. One can see for themselves where she traveled to. The same goes for the several explanations that have gone from one end of Antarctica to the other.

Those verses say:

“Who has ascended into heaven, or descended? Who has gathered the wind in His fists? Who has bound the waters in a garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is His name, and what is His Son’s name, If you know?” (Pr 30:4 NKJV)

“When He assigned to the sea its limit, So that the waters would not transgress His command, When He marked out the foundations of the earth,” (Pr 8:29 NKJV)

Tell me, where does either of those verses even mention Antarctica? Why do you quote them as supposed biblical proof of the nature of Antarctica?

Various ways - the physical nature of the land, possibly meeting scientists based there, or at least seeing a scientific base, wild life, instrumentation.

But still no mention on how they got too Antarctica in the first place.
